New Releases by Jeaniene Frost

DELUXE EDITION—featuring beautiful sprayed edges, a map, and illustrated endpapers! The exciting new chapter in New York Times bestselling author Jeanine Frost’s Beautiful and Beastly series. Raine Stone thought controlling her Beast would finally free her. Instead, it’s made her a prize, caged between an uncertain love and an unpredictable royal. Monsters might fear him, yet to Raine, Warden Remington “Remy” Byrne is an irresistible temptation. But now a powerful relic that can raise the dead is believed to be hidden on Remy''s lands. Its magic could resurrect ancient gods and fallen rulers ... and devastate the world. With enemies on every side, a vicious confrontation forces Raine to the Fae realm. Lugh Lamfada, the Fae prince, offers her refuge. But Raine’s wary of the darkly alluring ruler—Lugh knows more about her Beast than he should, and danger lurks around every corner of his kingdom. When the hunt for the Resurrection Stone catapults Raine back to her world, enemies now must become allies to stop the greater threat. And Raine must decide who to trust: the lethal, enigmatic Warden, or the prince with deadly secrets. Raine has learned to live with her Beast. It’s choosing who gets her heart that might destroy her...

New York Times bestselling author of The Night Huntress series Jeaniene Frost returns with a brand-new series! It’s Beauty and the Beast meets The Witcher, except Beauty IS the Beast, and he’s the Warden keeping mythical beings in check in our world and beyond. Raine Stone is living a nightmare. Ever since she survived the attack that killed her family, she's been hiding a terrible secret--and a Beast inside her. It feeds on violence and chaos, but she restrains its urges by playing vigilante on the city streets. Until one night, Raine uses the Beast’s energy to heal an elderly gentleman from a seemingly random attack and discovers a new world of danger—literally. Remington “Remy” Byrne knows the wall between a realm of deadly mythic creatures and our own world is very fragile. After all, he’s the Warden who guards the gateways between them. Raine’s Beast contains power that could tip the scales in a sinister plot against Remy’s rule—if she allies with him. Will they be friends or foes...or will their dangerous attraction turn into something else? And can our world be saved by their explosive alliance? At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Ambientato nel mondo di Night Huntress, l’ultimo ed emozionante romanzo della serie Night Rebel in cui antiche divinità sono pronte a seminare il caos, a meno che i vampiri Veritas e Ian non riescano a fermarle in tempo... Un dono degli dèi può scatenare l’inferno... Veritas e Ian hanno finalmente sconfitto il loro peggior nemico, ma il potere che gli ha permesso di penetrare nell’oltretomba ha conseguenze inaspettate. Ben presto, Veritas è costretta a contare sull’ultima persona di cui si fida: il dio Phanes, le cui mire vanno ben oltre la temporanea alleanza con l’intrigante vampira. Una fuga soprannaturale porta lei e Ian a scontrarsi con delle creature che cercano di dominare ancora una volta i mortali. Per fronteggiarle, avranno bisogno del supporto sia degli alleati che dei nemici giurati, sempre che il Consiglio dei vampiri non decida di giustiziare Veritas. Peggio ancora, una nuova minaccia sembra voler distruggere a tutti i costi il legame profondo che unisce Ian alla Guardiana. Riusciranno a restare uniti contro le forze soprannaturali che stanno per sconvolgere le loro vite? Oppure il loro amore, e così l’intera razza umana, non ha alcuna possibilità di sopravvivere?

L’emozionante terzo romanzo della serie del Principe della notte di Jeaniene Frost vede Vlad e la sua sposa Leila, da poco trasformata in vampiro, in conflitto tra loro e vulnerabili di fronte all’unico vampiro abbastanza potente da porre fine al regno del Principe Oscuro. Gli anni trascorsi da Leila nel circo itinerante sono stati sicuramente istruttivi. Quello che però non ha imparato è come essere un vampiro, o come essere sposata con il vampiro più famoso di tutti. Per adattarsi a entrambe queste novità, Leila è costantemente in bilico tra la passione che sente per Vlad e i pericoli della sua nuova condizione, ma la vera minaccia sta per arrivare. Vlad deve lottare contro un nemico secolare, la cui influenza si estende su tutti i continenti e la cui forza equivale alla sua. Non è da Vlad provare paura, ma non può farne a meno, per Leila, perché il suo nemico sa che lei è la sua più grande debolezza. Mentre amici e nemici si schierano contro di lui e la sua iperprotettività allontana Leila, l’amore di Vlad per la sua nuova sposa potrebbe essere la vera causa della loro rovina.

Nelle sue visioni Mencheres vede solo una distesa di oscurità e pensa che sia meglio morire, anche per eliminare il problema di una vecchia faida con il suo più acerrimo nemico: Radjedef, suo zio e Guardiano della Legge, che vorrebbe ottenere il potere che Tenoch, suo signore, ha lasciato in eredità al nipote. La presenza di Kira nella vita del vampiro ha però un effetto inaspettato, e ben presto Mencheres si innamora di lei e si lascia convincere a liberarla.

I due, da sempre attratti l’uno dall’altra nonostante la loro profonda diversità, si lasciano travolgere da una grande passione, che tuttavia potrebbe rivelarsi sempre più letale. Nei continui spostamenti tra gli Stati Uniti e l’Europa, Spade e Denise incontrano vecchi amici pronti a sostenerli – Ian, Crispin e la stessa Cat –, ma anche farabutti immischiati in loschi traffici di droga contro i quali lotteranno fino allo stremo delle forze.

Bones è finito nel mirino di una vamp vendicativa, ma ciononostante Cat è determinata a salvare il suo amato da una faida letale che coinvolge l’intero mondo dei non-morti. Le toccherà scoprire a sue spese quanto possono essere spietati i succhiasangue, anche perché i trucchi che ha imparato come agente speciale non le saranno di alcun aiuto. Per salvarsi da un destino peggiore della morte, avrà bisogno di abbracciare senza riserve il suo istinto vampiro...
